    That's where most of them originated that I've known about.

    I don't know what that means. I just know than an awful lot of scams originated in Nigeria, so much so that years ago the FBI had to set up a special task force. I recall that one guy was arrested in Nigeria.
    Why make an issue out of a non issue? It's got zero to do with sking color.
    If you don't recall all these incidents then you must be young. There was a crime ring over there with many victims. I think our two governments worked out a deal.

    Three young friends - including a teen who lives in his mom's basement and another with the username 'lol' - hijacked Twitter's most high-profile accounts in a Bitcoin scam that spiraled out of control
    • Fresh details emerge in the massive security breach at Twitter on Wednesday
    • Hackers targeted more than 130 accounts, many of them high-profile
    • Attack originally began as an attempt to take over rare, coveted accounts
    • Known as 'OG accounts' they consist of a single character or short word
    • Mysterious hacker 'Kirk' with admin access worked with two young brokers
    • Brokers sold OG accounts such as @6 to eager gamers before attack escalated
